High school junior Eddie Corazon and his Mexican-American family live in a crime infested town of New Mexico where kids are often pressed into service as drug runners if found on the streets alone. He is in an alternative high school and brandishing his role as a juvinile delinquent until he meets Lupe, a bright girl with dreams of college. Poignant memories of a caring former teacher and the Four Agreements also play a role in Eddie's transformation into a reflective honor student.
